The Intense Workshop Programs are specialised weekly tuition classes that are designed to ensure that students reach their full academic potential (including the elite A and A+ scores). These programs are based on a unique 10 step system that ensures students receive the best opportunities to optimise their VCE scores.
Students attend these small group tutorials on a weekly basis, in addition to their regular classes at school. Classes are held outside school hours, both after school and on weekends.
During the course of the Intense Workshop Program, students receive:
- Interactive instruction that reviews and reinforces concepts taught at schools.
- Detailed instruction that strengthens, consolidates and extends on required concepts, so as to prepare students for the elite A+ scores.
- Substantial notes that include step-by-step instructions, fully worked examples and take home practice questions. Questions are designed to reinforce taught concepts, and become progressively more difficult as students master the more challenging aspects of each course.
- Systematic revision that will ensure a reduction in pre-examination workloads and pressures.
- Exposure to highly probable examination questions.
- Specialised instruction in examination techniques and problem solving strategies, with significant emphasis on examination tricks, common student pitfalls and errors.
- Trial examination papers conducted under examination conditions.
- Instruction from our highly experienced and qualified teachers.
- Personalised attention and instruction when required.
- Question time sessions before and after class.
- Motivation and support.

"I used to be a B grade student - I just needed a little more encouragement and motivation to be better to
achieve A-grade results - and thanks to TSFX I have!"
During Yr 12 you don't get much time to waste. TSFX provided 2 hours each week of definite revision
and work that I wouldn't have done otherwise. I owe them big time!" Student – Parade College

TSFX to anyone from struggling students to advanced students wishing to extend their knowledge and
thoroughly prepare for their exams." Student – St Columba’s College

Definitely worth it. I learned more in the 2 hours I spent each week at TSFX as compared to
what I learned at school." Student – Preshil College

VCE subjects. Their notes are fantastic and save valuable study time. I recommend their courses without reservation.” Student – Camberwell Grammar School

I learn more at TSFX than I do at school.” Student – Melbourne Girls’ College

All the teachers fully understand and enjoy teaching the VCE course, making learning interesting
and relevant.” Student – Melbourne High School"
“My friends and I have always used tutors, and although we did get a lot from this, we found
that we learned more and got better results at school once we started the TSFX weekly classes.
We also picked up more exam advice and tricks at TSFX than from our tutors, not to mention the
detailed notes that summarised the whole subject.” Student – Preshil College
